+In a given setup, there are `n` MinIO instances talking to `m` KES servers but only `1` central KMS. The most simple
 setup consists of `1` MinIO server or cluster talking to `1` KMS via `1` KES server.
 
 The main difference between various MinIO-KMS deployments is the KMS implementation. The following table
